European Air War
Submitted by RED BARON on 2005-07-01 12:00:00 This product has a rating of 1 out of 5 running under Windows 2000 Comments: A while ago , I had upgraded my pc from Win 98 to the Win 2000 platform . Wanted to try out these new add-ons for my old air sim European Air War Installed my old EAW game ,guess what , wasn't compatible , so i made a search on the net and found the compatibility set-up description for the Win2000 APCOMPAT.exe program . It worked great , the steps included here on the previous post work exactly as stated in the # 2 statement . At that time i had a 1.0 Gig T-brid CPU 640 megs ram Asus A7VPro motherboard Asus 7100 64 megs AGP MX-400 videocard Creative 5.1 platinum souncard I could play games all i wanted . Now i purchased a new system . 3.0 Gig AMD Athlon 1024 ram Asus A8N-E 64 bit MotherBoard Nvidia 6200 256 megs videocard Audigy 2 creative soundcard . I installed Windows 2000 on it . System is very stable , installed ( without any errors ) my old EAW game , patched it to 1.2 and installed my APCOMPAT.exe program , and it won't work , gives me the old = " The Application failed to initialyse properly( 0x0000005). click on OK to terminate application . " So my present assumption , is that since this old win98 game worked under my previous win2000 platform , with the APCOMPAT.exe program , ( the other pentium 3 ) , i figure that it is likely that it's a Videocard driver issue . Hopefully i'll find a solution through my ongoing research . |
